In a heartbreaking revelation, Made In Chelsea star Sam Vanderpump, 28, has been diagnosed with irreversible end-stage liver disease. The news came as a shock to Sam, who was initially told his liver condition was manageable, but his health took a sudden turn for the worse last year.
Just eight weeks ago, Sam shared the devastating diagnosis with his co-stars Ollie Locke, 38, and Tabitha Willett, 33, on the E4 reality show. Ollie, who considers Sam 'like a brother', has since opened up about the emotional impact of the scenes, saying they were 'just f***ing heartbreaking'.
